It would help the citizenry, but it wouldn't be in the government's interest.

http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017/07/02/gemtech-sold-smith-wesson/ Massachusetts based firearms manufacturer Smith & Wessonhas purchased Idaho Silencer manufacturer GEMTECH. With details slim at the moment, there are obviously a lot of unanswered questions. However, the new GEMTECH headquarters building in Meridian, Idaho is still on schedule as well as all current product development and manufacturing capabilities.

It is absolutely the best of the DC EU films out so far. The whole family loved it. Especially my daughter.

You must be new around these parts.

It really is the simplest (and I think) best option.

Imgur.

Payment sent. Thanks again, I hate you.

Your suspicions would prove to be unfounded if you were to take the time to find out who Julie Borowski is and what she's about.

I did. I brought up rights. The post of yours that I quoted, quoted a post of mine. That post and the link contained therein were almost entirely centered around the subject of 2A rights and whether or not we as a nation really believe they apply to everyone, and specifically black folks. I made the assumption you were addressing the contents of that post when you quoted it. As as far as your explanation of style origination, I've heard at least a dozen different explanations for the genesis of that particular portion of urban styling (which is actually fading in popularity pretty quickly). All are irrelevant as it doesn't really matter where it originated, what is pertinent is that it is/was a widely popular style throughout the population. The position you are putting forth is that anyone who dresses in the popular styles of black youth culture is assumed to be of a criminal element. You are actually making the exact case that I am here, and those who are at the forefront of the BLM movement are attempting to make to society at large. Black folks, and black men especially, are viewed as inherently dangerous and criminal by white society. Because of that fact, they are killed at a disproportionate rate by law enforcement. That fact cannot be allowed to stand. It must be changed. Thank you for your assistance, even if it was inadvertent as I suspect it was.

So, rights are only rights if you approve of one's manner of dress or speech then, eh? Got it. By the way, could you break down what a "thug" looks like? Is it the clothes in the style popular in urban areas? Is it the hair? What exactly constitutes a "thug" or a "gang'sta"? I ask this because in the modern parlance, to the people who have it thrown in their direction, "thug" is a six letter word.

http://www.broken.press/froliberty/politics/this-is-me/ This is another excellent article from a woman who is a southern neighbor of ours (Mississippi). This case and the others like have been, and will always be about race until we as a society stop viewing Philandos and Tamirs as inherently more of a threat than Steve and Dave. I will admit that this case and its verdict have weighed particularly heavy on my heart. I spent a lot of years working retail in the predominantly black neighborhoods is Memphis I always encouraged the young men and women I worked with to get their permits and to carry in accordance with the law. Like many of us here I looked at the permit as a "good guy checkbox" and it may be, for me. Not necessarily for them. Instead of helping them better protect themselves and their families did I really just put them even more in the sights of police than they already were? The murder (I refuse to call it anything else, jury verdict be damned) of Philando Castile reminds me that I play under a different set of rules then they do. It isn't my fault, I have no guilt over that fact, but it is my responsibility to be cognizant of those facts. If we believe that the rights recognized by the 2A truly are for everyone, we must ensure that everyone gets to exercise them without fear that the agents of the state will murder them with impunity for doing so.

Not saying you did and not disagreeing with your prediction on the charges. I've just seen this all over social media and a metric crap ton of folks apparently don't understand basic physics.

What the rider did was dumb, very dumb, but he didn't cause the crash. The driver of the car swerved their vehicle at the rider and that is what was the event that initiated the wreck.

I mentioned that I had bought/committed to buying these before, but I now have them both in hand. Both are Nightforce NXS scopes. The small one is a 1-4x24 that I bought from bud (thanks again!) the larger one is a 3.5-15x50. The glass is phenomenally clear, like whoah! I can't wait to get them mounted and start using them.

Pretty sure that's date of birth.

"Sources say a member of Joint Task Force 2 killed an Islamic State insurgent with a McMillan TAC-50 sniper rifle while firing from a high-rise during an operation that took place within the last month in Iraq. It took under 10 seconds to hit the target." I wonder which would have got there first. The bullet or the faint echo of "sorry"

I held off off on watching the dashcam video as long as I could because quite simply, I've seen enough videos of cops executing people. I just don't have the stomach to watch people die anymore. But then I did, and I cried. Like, for real, legit cried. I cried for all of the reasons Trevor Noah breaks down in this video. I cried because I am emotionally exhausted from seeing citizens murdered by the state's agents with no accountability. This has got to change. If it doesn't, you will see more and more incidents like what happened in Dallas. That's not an endorsement, but a statement of fact.

Maybe this makes me a jerk, (I hope that isn't anyone's relative) and I know that it wasn't common in that era, but are we sure that's a natural born woman? I'm not so sure...

I'm going to state for the record that because of revenue snafus, I will be forced to wait until 6/30 to send payment. But rest assured that I will send it!

Well, as many of y'all may have seen, a verdict was handed down the other day in this case. I did my best to stay away from the politics of it last time, but I want to state for the record that I am extremely upset at the outcome of this trial. I believe it to be yet another reminder that we have a legal system instead of a justice system. Philando Castille did not receive any justice in this matter, posthumous or otherwise. That said, that's not the reason I am reviving this thread. I want to post Colion Noir's open letter on the subject. My hope is that as a name many of y'all are familiar with, and hopefully whose work and voice y'all value, his words may find some resonance where others may find resistance because of who they are
